Viewing FIPS Status on
the Library 7
There are three ways to view FIPS status on the library:
• The Partition Configuration screen (Setup > Encryption > Partition
Configuration) shows which partitions are enabled for FIPS. All tape
drives in FIPS partitions are enabled.
• The System Information Report (Reports > System Information)
contains a FIPS column in the Library Partitions section. The column
displays “Yes” if FIPS is enabled on the partition and “No” FIPS is
disabled.
• The tape drive information pop-up screen on the Library
Configuration Report (Reports > Library Configuration) contains a
FIPS Enabled item. This item only displays when the tape drive is an
HP LTO-5 or LTO-6 Fibre Channel tape drive. The item displays
“Yes” when FIPS is enabled on the drive and “No” when FIPS is
disabled.
